Brooklyn Bar Offers "Hangover Yoga"

When recovering from a hangover, some turn to a hearty breakfast with lots coffee, while others rely on the hair of the dog. At one Brooklyn bar, they are offering the "hair of the downward facing dog," a yoga class that combines brunch cocktails and yoga stretches tailored for those who have a bad hangover.

As reported in DNAinfo.com, on Sunday mornings hangover sufferers are welcome to join yoga instructor Reagan Wilson for "Hangover Yoga" at Cobra Club, a bar in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Wilson takes them through poses focusing on specific areas of the body that need healing during a hangover. Child's pose is perfect for the head as there is pressure on the forehead to help relieve a headache, while twists are done to help detoxify the liver.

Wilson told DNAinfo.com, "The same way social drinking can be a way to relax, yoga is another tool." She also focuses on letting go of the bad judgments you may have made on Saturday night. "I start off saying, 'Let go of everything before this class. Let go of any of the phone calls you made,'" said Wilson.

After the class, students are offered mimosas and Bloody Marys. According to Wilson, "All my classes here, since they're in a bar, have that lighthearted element." She added, "It's about doing what works for you. If you want to have a mimosa because that makes you feel better, you should, rather than feeling guilty." Her class is offered every Sunday at 2:30 p.m. and costs $15, which includes the drink. DNAinfo.com reports that Wilson also teaches Happy Hour Yoga every Friday at 6 p.m. for $8.
